The 31st International Screen Studies Conference, organised by the 
journal Screen, will be programmed by Screen Editors Professor Karen 
Lury and Professor Alastair Phillips.

Our confirmed keynote speakers are:

- Professor Mary Ann Doane (University of California, Berkeley)

- Dr Racquel J. Gates (Columbia University)
https://www.racquelgates.com/

- Dr Amy Holdsworth (University of Glasgow)
https://www.gla.ac.uk/schools/cca/staff/amyholdsworth/

The Editors welcome proposals for papers, audiovisual essays, and 
pre-constituted three-person panels on any subject for this year’s 
conference.

We are particularly keen to encourage contributors to a programming 
strand titled ‘Screen Aesthetics’ with the aim of renewing our 
engagement with traditional and emerging models of interpretation in 
relation to the textual and affective qualities of film, television and 
digital moving image media.

We invite papers or audiovisual essays addressing any aspect of this 
topic, whether this be the specific properties of the screen (including 
sound), or contextual approaches concerning moving image reception, 
production, circulation, and history.

We are especially keen on welcoming innovative approaches that lend 
themselves to the creative potential of the online conference format or 
that address the pedagogical and research challenges of the accelerated 
digital moment coming into view following the pandemic. Submissions for 
pre-constituted panels will be considered although not prioritised.

The Editors are disappointed not to be able to welcome you in person to 
Glasgow this summer but given the ongoing uncertainties in relation to 
the pandemic, have decided to hold the conference online for one more 
year only.
